South African electronic music band GoodLuck have teamed up with British singer, songwriter, producer and musician Youngr to release a re-imagined version of the classic hit song ‘Would I Lie to You Baby’.
The original version of ‘Would I Lie to You Baby’ was written by American music duo Charles & Eddie in the early ’90s.
The new version is said to have taken a bold sonic leap into the world of Purple Disco Machine, Chromeo, and Daft Punk—complete with modern production polish and a nostalgic twist. GoodLuck’s signature electronic groove meets Youngr’s vibrant instrumentation and soulful vocals, making for a track that’s as heartfelt as it is danceable.
“We’ve been wanting to collab with Youngr for years,” says Juliet Harding of GoodLuck

“His energy and musicianship is insane, and when we decided to rework this classic, we knew he was the perfect fit to work on it with us. So when we were in Wales on tour in the UK we spent a few days with him at his Llama Land studio and the song was born… it was super free, effortless and it just seemed to flow out of us!” added Harding
The groups also recorded a collaborative live performance video, shot on a dramatic clifftop at Slangkop in Kommetjie, which is set to drop in the coming weeks.
“It’s got that timeless hook, and teaming up with GoodLuck gave it a whole new life & vibe. It’s groovy, it’s a little bit cheeky, and it absolutely slaps.” added Youngr
